Yesterday
I did the ancestor birthday of Abigail Nicholson, who married
Nathaniel Albertson. I noted that her father Samuel Nicholson did not
name her in his will. But he did name her as his daughter when he
deeded property to her a few years after she was married. This is
that deed.
Due
to the handwriting it appears to be a copy made by the county from
earlier records. This was available on FamilySearch.org from
Perquimans County North Carolina records, deed book A, no. 285.
No.
